Rep. Pat Tiberi (R-OH) resigned to return to the private sector that
triggered tonight’s special election. Democrats weren’t even supposed to
be competitive here. Instead, we got a nail-biter of a race
that saw Democrat Danny O’Connor, who serves as Franklin County’s
Recorder, give state Sen. Troy Balderson and the Republican Party quite
the challenge in a congressional district that Trump won by
double-digits.

This special election in the 12thcongressional district
is the last contest until the 2018 midterms, where Democratic
enthusiasm is through the roof. It’s a bellwether, one the Democrats see
as a sign of a blue wave if they win or come very close. Whoever wins
will have to defend their seat again this November. While this cycle is
loaded with nuance, there are troubling signs that the GOP could
potentially lose the House. There’s still a lot of time to go, however.

As the world knows, Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk and
communications director Candace Owens were accosted by an Antifa group
who materialized at a Philadelphia café where they were having breakfast
on Monday morning.

The astonishing video shows that the group’s behavior very definitely
violated Pennsylvania’s harassment laws and possibly even their assault
laws.

Owens said a protestor with a bullhorn screamed into her ear. She described it as being “reminiscent of the civil rights era.
This is what you would expect in the civil rights era if a woman was
dining at a restaurant. They’ve grown increasingly violent because they
are losing. They’re losing a lot of turf.”
